Did you settle on one? We're considering trading in our 2018 Tiguan and the Taos is on our shortlist.

From what I hear you want to stick with a late 2023 or 2024 as most of the issues have been resolved apparently.

Probably been asked to death but when do we think the 8.5 R will be coming out, MY2025 or 26?

Did a quick search and nadda. What are the key differences between 2023 and 2024?

Not sure on the rate, but use OEM fluid for sure. Almost Racing will be able to do it for sure but I hear they are pretty busy

I'm seeing plenty of inventory of Golf Rs. Are dealers willing to play ball these days or is it still MSRP+?

Call and ask them. Throw them a price and see if they will bite Winking Face How many actually have $60K cash or willing to finance at those rates? Highly doubt it.

Learnt something new today, wife got a flat tire and she called VW Roadside Assistance. They came and changed the tire no charge. I was perplexed since the warranty on our Golf R ended last November so I figured we didn't have VW Roadside Assistance anymore.

She went to our dealer to get our summer tires put on and they explained to her that if you have more than $400 of service performed at a dealer in a given year you get VW Roadside Assistance. Did not know that.
